Apparently he uses a wax containing palm oil.

Really pleased with the result.

This thread is useless without pics!

Hi Paul, I remember your email. Two day correction and protection. We are working tomorrow if you would like to pop down for a cuppa and a chat and we can run the paint thickness guage over and have a look under the inspection lighting. Our base is opposite sandwell hospital.

Thanks for the offer but I can't today. Will probably be the week after next. The other half has plans for next week as it is the easter holidays! (Grrrr).

I think you need to use a DA polisher like the Megs G220 to remove the swirls properly.

Waxes and other products with fillers are really only temporary, although they may look great for a few months.

Have a look here for top tips..
